  3. Basia Bulat (CAN)
    Breathless, thirsty, dislodged from dreary nostalgia.
    Since the age of three, Basia has been sitting on piano stools and trying to hammer things out. It started with her piano-teacher mum, but along the way Basia’s picked up guitar, autoharp, banjo, ukelele, sax and flute. In high-school her instrument was the upright bass – a lone girl among “eight-foot-tall guys, goofing off with the tubas”. There’s a sense of play that still suffuses her music, jostling under the songs of regret and love, want and joy.

  6. Circlesquare (CAN)
    This isn't your usual 'danceä music. These are opiated rave-ups, like early bleep techno chopped and screwed, or shoegaze in an electric exoskeleton. Beaten down, scuffed-toe bass meditations wrapped in desert blues and dub delay- ambient music with an anti-pop brain and a rock n roll heart.
    Circlesquare is Vancouver, British Columbia's Jeremy Shaw now living in Berlin. Don't be suprised, though, if he doesn't sound like any of his citymates: for the legnth of his career, Circlesquare has never sounded quite like anyone but Circlesquare.

  48. Tutankamon (SWE)
    The lyrics deal with love, friendship, bitterness, development and of course with the fact that there is a new band in town.
    Tutankamon asked us not to mention their history in other bands (Shout Out Louds, Peter Bjorn And John, The Concretes, The Plan etc.) and that is no problem for us. Tutankamon definitely needs no namedropping whatsoever. The tracks can stand on their own with all the musical experience the group has, with all the ups and downs attached to it.

Mark Cartwright creates horrible noises and enveloping ambient soundscapes with a variety of electronic implements. Sam Scranton plays drums and percussive toys as loud as his thin arms will allow.

  54. Young Galaxy (CAN)
    Hailing from Montreal, Canada, Young Galaxy is the brainchild of Stephen Ramsay (ex-Stars) and Catherine McCandless.
    By way of background, both Ramsey and McCandless stem from island roots, from Canada’s Western frontier, that place of rising tides, beach side campfires and fogged-in cedars. Yet, there’s another facet, a cool urbaneness, the measured cadence of a city strut. Years spent in the fertile cosmopolitanism of Montreal have made their mark.
